Why Choose ARK Porcelain Refinishing?

Established in 1946 — ARK has been the trusted name in porcelain refinishing for nearly 80 years. Our experience is unmatched.

Exclusive Thermal-Fusion Process — Our patented process chemically bonds a new finish directly to your existing porcelain, creating a surface that is more durable and more resistant than most original factory enamel. It’s not a coating — it becomes part of the fixture.

Full-Time Technicians Only — Unlike most refinishing companies, ARK does not use subcontractors. Every technician is a full-time, specially trained ARK employee with years of hands-on experience.

USA-Made Enamel — ARK manufactures its own refinishing enamel using exclusively American-made components. No imported materials, no compromises on quality.

Lasts 15 to 25 Years — With proper care, an ARK-refinished surface lasts as long as a brand-new fixture. Some of our customers have enjoyed their refinished bathtubs for 35 to 40 years.

Single-Day Completion — Most ARK refinishing jobs are completed in one visit, so you can get back to your life without weeks of renovation disruption.

Fully Insured — ARK carries general liability insurance that exceeds industry standards, and all employees are covered by workers’ compensation. Your home and our technicians are protected.

Benefits of Bathtub Refinishing

Bathtub refinishing offers numerous advantages over traditional replacement. It is a cost-effective solution that can save homeowners significant amounts of money while achieving a like-new appearance for their fixtures.

In addition to affordability, refinishing minimizes waste and disruption. Unlike full replacements, which require extensive demolition and installation, refinishing can typically be completed in just a few hours, allowing you to enjoy your newly restored bathtub without the hassle of a lengthy renovation process.

Our Refinishing Process Explained

At ARK Porcelain Refinishing, we utilize our exclusive Thermal-Fusion process to ensure a high-quality finish that adheres firmly to your existing porcelain. This innovative technique not only enhances durability but also provides a smooth, glossy surface that is easy to clean and maintain.

Our process involves several meticulous steps, including surface preparation, application of a specialized bonding agent, and the final finishing coat. Each stage is carefully executed by our trained technicians to guarantee the best possible results, ensuring that your refinished bathtub will last for years to come.
